| Engine: |
1.8t. 4 cylinder, no major changes here except for the APR flashed e-prom. It is a 1bar so it puts out a bunch of power. Next stage is the new water pump and timing belt, then the exhaust system. Tektonic is where I am going to go with that. I also want to modify the bumper skirt to have a notch for the tailpipe to come out of it. |
| Drivetrain: |
5 speed manual, in the plans are a short shift kit and a new boot. Also has ASR (automatic stability recovery) |
| Notes: |
After an extensive search for a new car this summer I found this one being what I wanted and what I could afford. Some of the mods to this point are: Very custom JBL sound system, fiberglassed in 12" sub, dual amps in custom amp rack, all component speakers have also been replaced. I will be putting in a new head unit sometime this summer, right now its my old Alpine. The suspension has been lowered 1.5" with H&R springs. 18" ATC rims and low profile tires. Tinted windows and HiD headlights. Also I have PIAA lights with custom hidden brackets behind the lower grill. I love this car. Fast and rides on rails. It just sits too low in the snow. Oh well! |

The amp rack. Welded together to support both of them riding one on top of the other.

Ohhh the goodies to go into the car. YUM! I can't wait. The stock stereo was ok, but it just wasn't up to snuff. Now this one... Yeah this one will be better. Oh yeah.

Twins? I came out and lo and behold someone had parked next to me with just about the same model (trim level was different).
